Amazing day-use experience! The facilities were excellent, the infinity pool was beautiful, and the staff provided outstanding service. The resort offers a relaxing and luxurious atmosphere with breathtaking views. Definitely one of the best places to spend a day in Mactan. Highly recommended! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

We were skeptical to go on a Sunday but alas! Little to no day users at 10am! We honestly had so much fun (20s to 30 yrs old) trying out EVERY THING. Archery, Golf, Wall Climbing, Arcade, Billiards, Biking, Swimming, Diving (at the 12ft), and the Cold Plunge. Our senior parents had fun swimming 😅 they were too tired but definitely a senior friendly place! I cant emphasize enough how sulit the place is. The food serving may look small but its the healthy serving size! Appetizer, main then dessert. We added an ala carte order in case the free food wasnt enough but we were surprisingly full with the food that came with the package. To summarize, we loved it! Would definitely come back.

It was a great experience for my family especially for my daughter who is scared of animals. It was a good step for her to face her own fears and she enjoyed her visit at Ocean Park Cebu it will be a birthday she will always remember. price: Worth the price since we don't need to wait for the long line when getting the ticket.

We had a great time on this tour! Our driver, Sir/Kuya Otoy, was excellent—very easy to communicate with and incredibly accommodating. We were a group of five with two seniors, so I requested a lighter itinerary to make the trip more comfortable. Instead of following the full original schedule, we just opted for the following : visited Simala, bought pasalubong in Carcar, had lunch at House of Lechon, then continued to Sirao, Temple of Leah, and TOPS. He was very flexible and supportive of our adjustments. He’s also a skilled driver—we had a smooth ride throughout (no one felt dizzy), and he navigated the routes really well. The travel agency was also responsive and easy to coordinate with. They provided all the necessary details a day before the trip, which made everything seamless.

An amazing experience! Took about 3 hours driving to get there from Cebu city so we had to leave at 4:30 am. We stopped and had breakfast at Jolibees first! They offer ziplining and go pro rental so bring cash and take it with you because they also have spots a lot the way to purchase food and drinks! We listened to a safely video and filled out some forms. If you like adventure this is the tour for you! It was my first time jumping off multiple cliffs so I was scared at first but my tour guide Jerome was the best and made me feel comfortable so I was able to enjoy every minute! I would recommend this tour if your in Cebu!
